INGREDIENTS
Salted Caramel Mocha Latte
- 1 cup strong coffee
- ¼ cup milk
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
- 1 tablespoon caramel sauce
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
Caramel Cream Topping
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons caramel sauce + more to drizzle on top
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
INSTRUCTIONS
- Make caramel cream topping.Whip caramel sauce and heavy cream using a handheld milk frother until it thickens. Soft peaks should form in just a few seconds.
- Froth milk.Bring milk to a simmer on the stovetop, making sure it doesn't come to a boil since it can easily burn, or microwave it for 30 seconds. Pour heated milk into a French press, put the lid on, and move the plunger up and down, making sure to hold down the lid. Or, heat and froth milk at the same time using an electric milk frother. If you have an espresso machine, froth milk using the steam wand.
- Assemble drink.Pour coffee into a cup and add frothed milk, salt, caramel sauce, and chocolate syrup. Top with cream topping. Garnish by drizzling on caramel sauce and sprinkling sea salt on top of the cream topping.
